auereisen Electrotemp Ceramic is an excellent ceramic in
applications where high electrical insulation is required and
high thermal conductance is desired, as in heater elements.
Coating a heater element with Sauereisen Ceramic allows you to
electrically insulate the heater coils from shorting out while allowing
excellent heat conductance. Other applications include mass spec
probes, filaments, repair of ceramic pieces and some ceramic to
metal joining.
Application / Curing
Sauereisen No. 8 is supplied in powder form and need only be
mixed with water to apply. It may be applied by mechanical
dispenser. In some applications it may be desirable to grind the
powder with a mortar and pestle to minimize grain size for smoother,
thinner layers.
Dry powder should be thoroughly remixed in the container to
overcome any segregation. Weigh out 100 parts dry cement and 13
parts water. Add water to the powder all at once while mixing. Do
not add water gradually. Continue stirring, until a creamy mortar-like
consistency is obtained. Minimum amount of water should be used
as excess water reduces mechanical strength, increases shrinkage
and delays set time.
No. 8 hardens at room temperature or by baking. The initial set
begins in approximately one to two hours and the cement continues
to increase in hardness until thoroughly dried.
Drying time depends upon the amount of water used and the
application thickness. Normally, overnight drying is sufficient. Low
temperature oven drying - up to 180°F - can be used to accelerate
the cure.
Caution
No. 8 may be a mild skin and eye irritant - care should be exer-
cised in its use. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Eye protection
and rubber gloves are recommended when handling this product.
Sauereisen Ceramic is supplied in a convenient 4 oz. jar which
will provide insulation for many mass spectrometer heater coils,
filaments and probes.
